(“Delta”) published in the electronic newspapers La Nación (www.lanacion.cl) and El Líbero (www.ellibero.cl) the notice of the result of its public tender offer to acquire shares of LATAM Airlines (the "Tender Offer"). As indicated in said notice, in the Tender Offer Delta acquired a total amount of 121,281,538 shares of LATAM Airlines, representing 20% of the total shares issued, subscribed and paid of LATAM Airlines.

As a result, CVA decreased its ownership in LATAM Airlines (direct and indirect) from the amount of 159,137,727 shares, representing 26.24% of the share capital of LATAM Airlines, to the amount of 122,389,499 shares, representing 20.18% of the share capital. According to the information of the shareholders’ register to date, CVA continues to be the main individual shareholder of LATAM Airlines.
